Compiling from source

[Tim McNabb]

Thanks for the input Gary. I gave it a dry run a couple days ago, installing radiusd and rc.radiusd to /etc/rc.d/init.d will cause it to run at startup but I want to have more simplistic control over the service if possible. Obviously installing to sbin will give you control regardless of directory location, however the service command doesn't give you access, at least not that I've found (ex. Root#]service radiusd OPTION]). If someone has found a workaround for this, that would be fantastic. I know about enough Linux to be dangerous, though definitely having fun working on this and learning new things. ;-)

I just compiled / installed 2.1.10 on RHEL yesterday, zero problems.  I don't know about Chkconfig - I'm just testing it so launched it manually.

Has anyone been successful in installing FreeRADIUS 2.1.10 from src on CentOS or RHEL? I'd prefer not to use the package manager for installation as I'm attempting to install a custom module and the directory tree from the repo install doesn't match the source module setup. I know this is normal for using Yum, just wondering if anyone has been successful installing from src on CentOS and what worked and what didn't. Chkconfig doesn't seem to working on a src install either and I want radiusd to run as a service.

Thanks in advance,
